Chapter 17: The Guardian Interlude
"Attention Guardians, it's the thirtieth anniversary of the creation of the TVD universe!" A cheery voice announced across the Guardian's realm, "You know what that means, you get to participate in the Divine Intervention Games!"
Ake who had been half-halfheartedly re-watching his wards ending for the thousandth time from his cubicle, snapped to attention when he heard the announcement as his mind raced with the possibilities of what this meant. He had the chance to personally interfere with his wards lives by using a vessel. Instead of just watching the various alternate universe where their own decisions caused these different universe to develop now Ake had the chance to have his personal universe with a version of his wards that were changed by the actions of his vessel and himself.
The winners of the games were allowed to retire and spend the rest of their cosmic existence doing whatever ever they pleased and this very much appealed to Ake who was tired of his job and had been wanting to do other things for years and now he had the chance.
"A file will be sent to you about who your vessel is," The cheery voice continued, "You finally get to find out who they are, isn't that exciting?!"
Ake didn't like most people especially mankind, he'd very reluctantly grown somewhat fond of the Mikaelsons after watching them for so long but they still irritated him some days. He hoped that whoever his vessel turned out to be that they weren't too obnoxious and that he'd be able to easily manipulate them for his purposes. Ake was going to win this competition no matter what.
'Sasha Louise Osborn, huh?' Ake thought as he read over her file that detailed her family history and gave him an impression on what kind of soul she has.
She was described to have a very passionate and contemplative soul. The more he read on her the more he decided he could work with her. Yeah she'd probably not like his attitude but she didn't have to like him she just had to help guide his wards towards their best lives. If he manages to do this then he'd win.
The thing was "best lives" was subjective and he had no idea just what his bosses would consider the Mikaelsons living their best lives. He'd just have to choose his own interpretation and go from there. He was sure whatever he'd chose would be correct as he did now his wards very well after all these years.
Now he had to go meet his vessel.
1994
"Hello, aren't you a pretty bird?" The young curly haired blonde girl stated with a smile as she looked at the small yellow bird that was perched on her windowsill.
"Pretty?"Ake echoed in a deep voice as he raised his beak into the air arrogantly, "I'd say I'm more majestic then pretty!"
The blonde girl jerked back in surprise as her green eyes widened, "Y-you are talking!" she exclaimed.
Ake gave her a judgmental look and scoffed, "Why yes I am, tell me are you always going to state the obvious? Because that will get annoying quickly."
The little girl's face pinched in offense, "Don't be mean!" She pouted.
"Don't be stupid then."Ake grumbled.
"What do you want mean bird?" She asked with a frown.
"I want to tell you a story..." Ake drawled.
"A story?" The girl repeated excitedly, "I love stories!"
"Well once upon a time..." Ake started.
"So, how did it go with your vessel, Ake?" A silver glowing wolf asked excitedly as he darted around his fellow Guardian.
"What are you bothering me, Ingall?" Ake scowled, "Don't you have your own vessel to acquaint yourself with?"
"No, Zander Reyes is much too self-righteous. He'd be focused on fixing all the wrong things for my wards!" Ingall explained with a sigh, "So I was thinking since you currently are watching over my old ward if we could I don't know...work together?"
"No." Ake stated bluntly as he moved to fly away from the annoying Guardian.
"Ake come on, please!" Ingall urged as he blocked the other's escape, "I thought we were friends!"
"You thought wrong." Ake deadpanned.
"I'll share my info on Mikael with you!" Ingall bargained.
"It's illegal for you to share your wards information with me, idiot." Ake scoffed, "You'll get me disqualified!"
"But I really want my wards and Niklaus to interact!" Ingall whined.
"Well you're the one who kept harassing me into trading Mikael for Niklaus so you have no one but yourself to blame that Niklaus very rarely interacts with his werewolf relatives!" Ake criticized harshly and then he flew away from Ingall.
"Ake, please work with me!" Ingall shouted and he tried to follow the other but Ake increased his speed and was gone.
Ake looked on in amusement as Sasha tried to introduce him to her parents.
"Mom, dad this is Ake!" Sasha declared gesturing to Ake who was flying around her head and then she looked at Ake and said, "Ake these are my parents!"
Sasha's parents traded looks before her mom put on a wide smile and said, "It's nice to meet you, Ake!"
She was looking in the wrong direction when she said this and Sasha frowned and said, "He's sitting on my shoulder now."
"Oh, of course, I'm sorry." Her mom apologized.
"Are we really going to entertain this?" Her dad asked his wife with a scoff.
"Shush!" Her mom hissed and then she said, "Sasha why don't you go play with Ake while I have a word with your father, okay?"
"Okay!" Sasha agreed and she left but Ake stayed behind to listen to the adult's conversation.
"Orville, do not degrade her imagination!" The mother chastised.
"She shouldn't have an imaginary friend, Natalie," Orville argued, "She should have real friends."
"She's only six years old, she'll forget about this Ake eventually," Natalie stated, "Just let her be for now."
"Fine." Orville agreed reluctantly.
Ake laughed quietly at how wrong they were, Sasha was never going to forget him. She was going to grow up to be his champion. He was slowly telling her the Mikaelsons story. He planned to make it so she'd eventually know the Mikaelsons better then she knew herself.
2000
"Honey, she's twelve this has gone on long enough!" Orville exclaimed to his wife.
"You're right, she's been ignoring her other friends in favor of Ake. It isn't healthy." Natalie stated worriedly.
"That's why I scheduled an appointment with a psychiatrist." Orville declared, "She has an appointment on Wednesday."
Ake who was lingering inside the house after Sasha had gone to sleep scowled at the fact that her parents were trying to interfere with his plans for Sasha. This psychiatrist may make Sasha doubt his existence and his stories and it may undo all his hard work. That wasn't going to happen, not on his watch.
"Ake, what's the matter you look upset?" Sasha asked when Ake returned from where he disappeared to.
"Your parents think you're crazy," Ake shared dramatically, "They're trying to get rid of me!"
"What?!" Sasha exclaimed angrily, "They can't do that you're my friend!"
"Well there is a way to make sure that I'll never leave you..." Ake stated suggestively.
"You just sounded so creepy right now." Sasha stated with a frown and a disturbed expression on her face.
Ake stabbed her on the cheek with his beak and squawked at her indignantly, "Did not!"
"Well what were you trying to say then?" Sasha asked as she rubbed at her face with an annoyed pout.
"Let me just show you." Ake responded and then his form glowed a brilliant gold and he flew into her chest.
Sasha bent over with a gag as she felt like her chest was on fire and like Ake was crawling in her veins and suddenly her eyes changed to a golden shade and she was encased in a gold dust that made her feel so tired and she just fell to the ground completely unconscious.
"Sa...Sash...Sasha!" Someone was yelling sounding like they were far away.
Said girl groaned and rolled over on her back, "Ake...what the heck did you do to me?"
He did not respond.
Sasha frowned and slowly got off the floor, "Ake?" She mumbled.
"Sasha, it's time for your appointment!" Her dad shouted from downstairs.
"...What appointment?" Sasha asked herself confused.
"Sasha!" Her dad shouted again.
"What are you talking about?!" Sasha shouted back.
"It's Wednesday, it's time for your psychiatry appointment I've told you this!" Her dad yelled again sounding annoyed with her.
"It was...Saturday...what did Ake do to me?" Sasha asked herself frightened.
Ake watched from inside the resides of Sasha's mind as she headed downstairs to Orville completely obvious to what Ake, himself was currently doing. He was preparing to enter a slight hibernation where he be slowly starting to assimilate his powers into Sasha's being so when she got older she'd be to access them and make them her own.
He closed his eyes and released a blast of golden dust over Sasha's brain that would make it so she'd dream of the Mikaelsons for years to come until the time came where she'd actually meet them and become his champion.
The last thing he heard was Sasha saying, "Why do I have to do this dad I'm not crazy!"
"These last few days you..." Orville started speaking but Ake heard no more.
2010
Ake's woke up and he saw that Sasha appeared to be in a dorm room of some sort. He spread his wings and moved.
Sasha grimaced as she felt a strange burning sensation traveling from her head down to her chest and suddenly a golden bird flew out of the middle of her chest.
"What the ever loving fuck?!" Sasha screamed as she flailed and fell over away from the bird hovering in front of her.
"Hello, little bird longtime no see." Ake stated with an almost smile.
"Go away, you figment of my imagination!" Sasha yelled as she tried to whack at the flying yellow bird with her hand.
"It's time for you to go change the Mikaelson's lives for the better. Make me proud, little bird." Ake intones.
He sends her away and the game truly begins.
He chuckles slightly as Sasha panics about seeing Elijah pinned to the wall with a coat rack and the silly girl runs up the stairs and hides under a bed, like that would help her in anyway.
She behaves rather childishly stubborn and refuses to believe that Elijah could possibly be real so Ake decides to temporary freeze time so he could speak with her.
"Little bird, you are not helping yourself by being rude to Elijah." Ake tutted as he appeared next to her head.
"Gah!" Sasha shrieked as he startled her.
Ake hid his amusement at this and said, "You are supposed to be making his life better."
"Excuse the fuck out of you, you asshole but I refuse to believe this is real. Elijah is fictional. Something I made up as a child. This. is. not. happening." Sasha growled.
Ake quietly scoffed at her attitude and condescendingly stated, "You really think that you could have made up all those stories I told you? Don't be foolish. Humans are much too simple-minded to have been that creative. Also didn't you think it was odd that you knew things like how to skin an animal without ever being taught by anyone who wasn't me, your supposedly imaginary friend?"
"I don't know how to skin an animal." Sasha countered back with a petulant look on her face.
Ake mentally rolled his eyes at her and said, "Oh but you do, you dreamed it remember? Ask Elijah if what you dreamed was correct."
He then unfroze time and was pleased when she finally accepted that this was reality although he did rolls his eyes when she fainted from shock.
He took that chance to enter her mind, "Do you believe me now?"
"Why me?!" Sasha cried.
"Because you are my vessel." Ake explained vaguely as he wasn't really allowed to tell her about the competition as it was against the rules.
"What does that mean though?" Sasha asked frustrated with a scowl on her face.
"It means that you are the perfect candidate for me to interact with on the mortal plain." Ake answered simply with a mental shrug.
"Why do you look like a little golden bird?" Sasha suddenly questioned.
"Because my true form is too much for your simple mortal mind to handle so instead this is what you choose to see me as. It was a bit insulting at first dumbing down my majesty to this puny form but I've gotten used to it." Ake lied not wanting to admit his that this was the only physical form he was capable of copying from Earth.
"You like insulting people don't you." Sasha observed.
"I speak nothing but the truth." Ake sniffed sticking his beak in the air, humans were all idiots after all.
"I don't care if you are an angel. You are still an asshole." Sasha stated with attitude.
"I am a Guardian not an angel." Ake corrected sharply, he hatred being called an angel it was insulting.
"Same thing." Sasha dismissed.
"It is not!" Ake denied, "Angels are mythological creatures from religion whilst I am a Guardian a cosmic being with powers you can barely comprehend with you tiny simple monkey brain!"
Sasha didn't say anything and then he notices that she was gone from her dream, she must have woken up.
"Tch, annoying brat." Ake mumbled to himself.
"Those. two. idiots." Ake groaned in irritation as Elijah got the bright idea to try and speak to him using Sasha as a relay.
"You know you are endangering Sasha now, right?" Ake states bluntly as soon as Elijah appears inside her mind.
Elijah blinks at him for a moment before he shakes his head and asks, "Am I? I just wanted to speak with you and get answers."
"Sasha is not yet ready to channel my powers." Ake explained impatiently, "You are killing her so get out of her head and never try this again. Just trust that she will help you, I'll make sure of it."
"But why?" Elijah asked determinedly.
"Because I like the Mikaelsons and how your story ended was horrible and I want to fix it." Ake answered honestly for once and then kicked Elijah out of Sasha's head.
"Also I really want to be able to retire." Ake muttered to himself after Elijah was gone.
Ake is incredibly pleased that Sasha and Elijah are getting along but he wasn't surprised as Sasha's favorite character had been Elijah no matter what she claimed.
Which was why he was kind enough to let Elijah be the first Mikaelson she met, she can't say he never did anything for her.
Speaking of doing something for her, he used his powers to send the heavy luggage she was struggle with to the car, he laughed when she almost fell from the loss.
"Ake?!" She asked confused.
'I decided to help since you're doing a good job with Elijah' Ake explained inside her mind.
"Why did you wait until I was almost to the exit?" she grumbled.
'Watching you struggle was amusing' Ake snickered, she was such a funny little human.
"Asshole." she insulted him.
"Ake!" Ingall shouted as the annoying coworker invaded Ake's space.
"Go away, Ingall or I will light you on fire." Ake threatened.
"Ouch and here I was deciding to visit and see how your vessel was doing...has she met Klaus yet?" Ingall badgered.
"No..." Ake answered and then he lit the other Guardian on fire.
"Ake you're such mean guy!" Ingall yelled as he tried to put himself out looking more annoyed then hurt by Ake's attack.
"Right Ake?" Sasha telepathically asked him out of nowhere.
Ake hadn't been paying attention to her current conversation because of Ingall so he just said, 'Yeah, sure.'
'Ake?' Sasha asked mentally.
'Sorry, busy day today but I believe in you. Go little bird!' Ake answered half-hardheartedly as he struggled to pushed Ingall out of his cubicle.
'You suck at being reassuring' Sasha criticized the Guardian but he barely heard this as Ingall snapped his teeth at Ake's wings trying to stop him from pushing him.
"Oi, watch it!" Ake warned as he managed to get rid of him.
"I'm going to go visit Runa, she's nice to me!" Ingall stated as he trotted away.
"Have fun with that!" Ake called back sarcastically.
'Ake, when will I be able to use your powers so I can help in these dangerous situations?' Sasha asked in her mind.
'I'll start teaching you tomorrow.' Ake answered simply.
It had took her long enough to finally ask him to help her with learning how to use his powers. He was going to have so much fun tormenting her as he trained her. He chuckled darkly to himself as he imagined it.
"Okay Ake, how are we doing this?" Sasha asked him aloud as she sat in the middle of the living room of Elijah's apartment.
"Well you're going to need to chase me." Ake announced gleefully as he materialized in his little golden bird form and started flying around her head.
"Wait, what?" Sasha asked but Ake ignored her and fazed through the closed window and headed out into the town's sky.
Ake grinned to himself as Sasha struggled to follow his fast pace.
"How is this training?!" Sasha yelled up at him.
"We are increasing your endurance and stamina." Ake answered honestly but mentally said to himself, 'And I'm having fun watching you dissolve into rage at your inability to keep up.'
"How does that help me learn how to use your powers?!" Sasha whined.
"All will be revealed in time." Ake bullshitted as he laughed internally.
"Stop trying to be all mysterious, it's obnoxious!" Sasha growled.
"Run, little bird, run." Ake mocked and he couldn't help but burst out laughing at her rising annoyance.
Sasha growled and started trying to get him but she couldn't reach and she was just getting angrier until she screamed, "Winged fucker!"
"Try harder!" Ake cackled.
Sasha screamed wordlessly in rage.
"You do realize people can see you right, way to come off as insane." Ake mocked.
Sasha finally managed to catch him and teleport on her own by jumping high in the air and subconsciously activating the ability.
"You also managed to teleport all on your own, congratulations." Ake deadpanned as he flew out of her hands and landed on the couch.
"Huh?" Sasha blinked as she looked around, "How did I do that?"
"Think about it, how did you?" Ake ordered not wanting to have explain everything to her, she did have her own brain after all, she could figure it out.
"I was just really irritated and kept imagining myself back at the apartment relaxing and I just jumped and caught you. I didn't even notice that I changed locations!" Sasha exclaimed, "Was it really me, who triggered the teleportation?
"Yes it was. You just have to remember how you did it. Go on try now." Ake urged.
Sasha did and Ake found himself privately proud of her but he would never tell her that of course.
Ake watched what felt like in slow motion as Damon moved to snap Sasha neck.
"Teleport." Ake growled lowly.
Sasha didn't hear him and she didn't act.
Damon got closer, his hands extended.
"Teleport." Ake ordered again.
Damon's hands wrapped around her jaw.
"TELEPORT YOU STUPID HUMAN!" Ake screamed.
Damon snapped her neck and Sasha died.
Ake watched blankly as the screen went black and the words 'You are pending eliminated from the competition, please choose if you'd like to revive your vessel or give up' appeared on his screen.
He scowled darkly and slammed the revive option, "You've damned your soul Sasha but it serves you right for being stupid enough to be killed in the first place!"
Ake released a sigh of relief when his request was approved and Sasha was allowed to be revived and he was allowed back in the competition once more. Although Sasha would now be missing 9% of her soul but she'd been fine...probably.
He watched as his screen turned back on and he saw Sasha appear alive in one of sections of this realm and he went to go speak with her.
"You're dead, nice going." Ake complained with a scowl when he saw her.
Sasha headed whipped around to stare at Ake in shock, "W-what?" she stuttered.
"Yep you're deceased. Damon snapped your neck. Great failure." Ake glared as he flew around her head and gave her a pissed look, honestly her death should have been easily avoided.
"What- Are you mad at me for dying?!" Sasha asked incredulously.
Ake scoffed internally and thought to himself, 'Was he mad?! Of course he was she made him lower in ranking in the games because of her stupidity but he couldn't tell her that...well might as well make her think she's special.'
So Ake said, "Yes! Do you realize how much in a pain in an ass it is to bring you back?! I barely got permission to do this little experiment where a Guardian using their vessel to interfere this strongly in their wards lives! It's usually highly illegal! And you go and die on me! It's so inconsiderate!"
Sasha just gaped at him was a stupid look on her face and then predictably she started screaming at him and he half-listened to her rant, she complained that he should have saved her.
"There's only so much I can do! The moment I started teaching you to use my powers I was forbidden from activating them for you myself! You and your stupid slow human brain, screwed me!" Ake yelled back which was actually the complete truth.
Again Sasha screamed at him and was utterly unaffected by her impassioned speech about how she tried. Because if she really tried she'd never have died, the foolish girl had so much power at her fingertips and she had no idea how to use it properly. Her stupid human brain prevented her from understanding the true majestic of his abilities but she was his vessel he expected better of her and she disappointed him and he told her so.
"Fine leave me in my death and pick someone else then!" Sasha spat.
"I can't I'm stuck with you. Elijah was a failure. I suppose I have to send you to a different sibling this time around." Ake decided as he started flying around her head at a speed impossible for a real bird. He became a blur around her head and he sent her to Niklaus.
Ake saw her arrive in the alleyway not too far from Klaus and his associates and she noticed that something was different about herself and he explained what happened to her soul.
She didn't show to be effected by this knowledge until she burst into sobs at Klaus's feet and Ake was horrified, was she going to be this hysterical all the time now? He didn't want to deal with that. He stabbed her with his beak like he used to when she was a child to force her to focus on the task at hand.
Fortunately she managed to pull herself together and then she decided to start play keep-away from Klaus using her own person. Until she stopped to speak to Klaus and managed to frighten him and he lashed out as a result and tried to kill her but she teleported them both away and Klaus got badly burned. Sasha finally learned that she cannot teleport with someone with her without them getting hurt.
'Use the golden light to create shackles and restraints.' Ake offered then inside her mind when he saw her struggling to find something to prevent him attacking her again.
Sasha listened but she crafted them poorly and Klaus attacked her again and Ake was forced to interfere because Sasha accidentally pulled Klaus into her mind and Ake was pulled to speak to him.
"Niklaus Mikaelson, don't make me regret trading Mikael for you." Ake chastised the over-dramatic man.
'What?' Klaus thought confused and frightened.
Ake explained, "I am the Guardian for the Mikaelson family. You are not a Mikaelson by blood so you shouldn't be under my jurisdiction. However your biological father and his family's Guardian was angry at Mikael for slaughtering so many of his wards. Ingall the Anselson Guardian traded you for Mikael. So when Mikael dies, he may make Mikael suffer for killing his wards. You are my ward now and I do want you to live your best life. Sasha is my vessel and she will be able to make sure that you do that. So stop trying to kill her and let her help."
'Or more accurately Ingall nagged and nagged me until I agreed to the trade which wasn't difficult I hated who Mikael had become after Freya died.' Ake thought to himself, 'Also Niklaus is an interesting little hybrid.'
Ake pulled back from Sasha's mind and Klaus was sent back to his own body.
Ake stared at Damon Salvatore who had been purified by his vessel meaning his conscious had been sent to the Guardian's realm.
"Ake, why did your vessel decided to mess with one of my wards?" Celestino, the Salvatore Guardian asked with a raised eyebrow as he appeared outside Ake's cubicle.
Ake shrugged, "She didn't like him, you're welcome to deal with him I have no interest."
"I'll just put him into a deep sleep until your vessel decided to release him," The blue phoenix sighed, "I don't want to deal with a ward that's gone insane from being in our realm too long."
"Have fun with that." Ake dismissed.
"Ake, make your vessel help my ward!" Iskra, a red phoenix demanded.
"No," Ake scoffed, "Use your own vessel."
"It's not time yet for my vessel to appear." The Petrova Guardian responded complained.
"Well I guess Katerina is screwed then." Ake responded carelessly.
"You'll regret not helping me." Iskra swore angrily.
Ake waved her off not intimidated and she stalked away from his cubicle in a huff.
"Ake are Niklaus and your vessel getting along as this moment?" Ingall asked as he invaded Ake's personal space, he'd been badgering Ake for the last hour and Ake was so done.
Ake just straight up lit him on fire again and didn't respond but he flinched when out of nowhere Sasha telepathically screamed his name.
"Is Niklaus alright?" Ingall asked after he put himself out and he noticed Ake's flinch.
Ake lit him on fire once more.
"What?" Ake responded to Sasha.
"Is the ninth day cursed?!" Sasha asked urgently.
"Cursed?" Ake laughed incredulous, "No why are you asking such a ridiculous thing?"
"Have you seen what has happened? Aren't you supposed to be all knowing?!" Sasha accused.
"I've been busy." Ake responded with forced nonchalance, "Give me a moment."
Ake rewound his screen and saw that Klaus had told her the moonstone was missing and that Sasha couldn't find Elena.
"Sasha, are you going to disappointment me again?" Ake sighed in irritation.
"What?!" Sasha exclaimed.
"How you have messed up so badly again?" Ake growled, "The moonstone is gone and Elena is missing? Come on."
"I'm human, I cannot be everywhere at once!" Sasha defended herself.
"That's what lackeys are for like you are for me. Please start using your brain I know you have one. Fix this now." Ake demanded.
Sasha screamed in wordless rage, "Just go away!" She shrieked.
"Yes throw a tantrum like a child that'll help. Please you know it doesn't. Niklaus is a huge example of that. Learn from Mikaelson's mistakes I can't believe I have to spell that out for you. Stupid human." Ake huffed while rolling his eyes.
"I hate you sooooo much." Sasha snarled and then forcefully shoved Ake out of her head.
"Well that was rude." Ake muttered as he leaned back in his chair after being evicted from Sasha's head.
He watched her scrambled for a solution and his eyes widen in horror when she used time travel. That was so dangerous for a human! And now she was dying...again!
But then after a bit Klaus arrived and he healed her with his blood and took her back to his apartment.
Ake let out a breath of relief that Sasha would now be okay. He really didn't want deal with her losing more of her soul.
He urged her awake by telling her to awaken and she did.
He watched her flounder at her change at surroundings and struggle to remember what happened to her.
'Ake?' She questioned instinctively.
"Time travel is forbidden for Non-Guardians. You will never remember what you saw or what you did. You're are very lucky to be alive. Niklaus found you just in time, he gave you his blood and it saved you." Ake explained.
She better never try to time travel ever again or else Ake was going to be so upset with her.
"NIKLAUS IS A HYBRID! WOO-HOO!" Ingall screamed right in Ake's ear.
Ake straight up kicked him in the throat for that.
Ingall feel down on the ground rasping and choking from the hit.
"Stop bothering me about Klaus." Ake growled.
"But I wanna know!" Ingall wheezed.
"You literally have hundreds of universes to view where your wards and Niklaus have crossed paths, view those." Ake ordered harshly.
"I'll just come back when you're in a better mood." Ingall responded.
"He's never in a good mood!" Iskra shouted from her cubicle.
"Shut up!" Ake shouted back at her.
"Your vessel should be kinder to my ward." Iskra complained to Ake.
"Elena isn't the center of the universe despite what you may think," Ake retorted, "Everyone isn't required to adore her."
The Petrova Guardian glared at him.
"And anyway Sasha has been plenty nice." Ake stated, "She's just not kissing her ass."
"I can't wait until my vessel crosses paths with yours." Iskra responded coolly.
"Wait what your vessel...you're competing now?!" Ake exclaimed.
Iskra just smirked at him and she sauntered off with her beak in the air.
Ake shook his head, he didn't have time for her dramatics!
Iskra would hopefully get distracted by Celestino and forget about this as what tends to happen with her.
Ake stared at Stefan Salvatore who had been purified just like Damon before him.
"Ake, why did your vessel decided to mess with one of my wards, again?" Celestino with a scowl as he stared Ake down.
"She saved him from Klaus's wrath you should be thanking her." Ake defended her.
"I'll pass," Celestino said dryly, "I guess I'll put him into a deep sleep as well."
"Probably should." Ake nodded.
"If she does this again though I may start to get angry." Celestino warned.
"She won't." Ake promised.
'She probably will.' Ake thought to himself with a sigh.
"Runa what the hell do you want?" Ake asked as he looked at the snake with distrust.
The female Guardian pursed her lips and lightly said, "If your vessel goes near my ward I'll have her killed, do you understand?"
"What the hell, why?!" Ake exclaimed in alarm.
"Because I hate you and I'm winning this competition, not you." Runa stated with distaste.
"Your vessel-" Ake started but he was cut off.
"My vessel would crush yours so keep yours away, I'll only warn you this one time." Runa declared coldly and then she was gone.
'Little bird leave the cottage gates right now!' Ake immediately yelled at Sasha.
"Ahhhhhhhhh!" Sasha shrieked as she stumbled from alarm, "What the hell Ake?!"
'Leave I'm dead serious.' Ake stated severely his voice thundering inside her mind, he did not want her near anything that had to do with that horrid bitch Runa.
'Ake, explain what is going on right now!' Sasha demanded.
'Stupid human just do as you're told!' Ake growled, she always had to be so stubborn!
'No.' Sasha said stubbornly as she crossed her arms.
'There someone inside that house who can kill you so get away from the cottage!' Ake ordered, who knew nothing of what Runa's vessel is like but he guessed she was just as dangerous as the Guardian which meant he had to keep Sasha away from them.
'Anyone could kill me, I'm not immortal!' Sasha scoffed not concerned, 'What could some crazy witch do that anyone else couldn't?!'
'It's not a witch.' Ake responded gravely.
'What is it then?' Sasha asked confused.
'You're better off not knowing just leave.' Ake responded seriously, he couldn't tell her if he wanted to again it was against the rules.
'...Fine.' Sasha agreed eventually.
Ake let out a sigh of relief. He'd make sure Sasha never had to worry about Runa or her vessel. He had to find out more about Runa's vessel which meant he was probably going to have to ask Ingall. Ake sighed internally but he refused to let Runa win.
"Hey Ingall..." Ake said tightly as he hovered outside the Guardian's cubicle.
"Oh, hi Ake!" Ingall said grinning brightly, "Are you in a better mood now?"
"Tell me about Runa's vessel." Ake demanded crankily.
"Oh no, no, no I'm not doing that Runa would be cross with me!" Ingall refused.
"I will...make sure Klaus meets your wards if you do." Ake bargained.
Ingall's eyes widened and he looks temped but he says, "Oh I can't betray Runa, I'm sorry but could you do that anyway?"
"No!" Ake snaps and lit Ingall on fire and flew away angrily.
Ake watched as Klaus was about to create his first hybrid when Sasha asked him how to one creates a hybrid in the first place.
'Why, oh why did these two wait this long to ask me?' Ake asks himself, just so tired of human idiocy.
Sasha repeats his name and Ake ignores her deciding he'd wait to tell her this information out of pure pettiness because he was so annoyed at them both for waiting until the last possible second to ask him.
Sasha yelled his name then and still he waited.
She then chooses to scream obscenities at him and demanded he respond.
'Calm down, little bird I was asking for permission to tell you.' Ake lied.
'And?!' Sasha asked impatiently.
'Disrespectful brat.' Ake thought to himself with a scowl.
'First feed them Klaus's blood and then kill the wolf and then have them transition using Elena's blood.' Ake explained begrudgingly.
Sasha doesn't even thank him and just relays this information to Klaus.
Ake sighed in exasperation at her ungratefulness. But at least Klaus is finally on his way to getting the damn army. Soon Mikael would be dead. Then the other siblings would be awakened and Sasha could help them too.
"So Klaus is turning wolves, huh?" Ingall asked excitedly as he appeared out of nowhere as if summoned, "Say how about he goes and meets my wards and turns them!"
Ake lights Ingall on fire.
He then continues his musing and thinks that Iskra and Runa could try and beat him but it wasn't going to happen. Ake was going to win and he was going to be retire and then he never have to see Ingall ever again.
Paradise was waiting and Ake could. not. wait.
A/N: So ya'll got to find out Ake's true motivations! His POV was lots of fun to write even with the rehashing off some of the scenes from past chapters. Sorry about that but I found it necessary for what I wanted to write. Hope you all liked it anyway. Also I wanted to take a moment to thank you guys for reading my story, giving me a follow or a favorite or choosing to leave a review! I appreciate it all! :) Also I decided to change my username from Quiet-Hoshi99 to StarrySilence.
